A second visit to Buxton this week gave us all the excuse we needed to revisit the Pavillion café.
Here's a view unfettered by scaffolding, and some shots of the interior.  DJI Pocket2 images.

And from the first floor window (with reflection, sorry)

Absolutely amazing shots.    That's definitely a place to stop at.  The view looking out from the 2nd floor is my favorite shot.  Great job Mr. B.

You're very welcome.  

I can just picture myself at the cafe looking out that 2nd floor window.  Okay, now I better quit dreaming.  

Maybe when the pandemic threat is behind us and I start traveling again I could add the Bruxton Pavillion to my must see and visit list.

It's an historic Spa town and should be on any tourist's list

Nice place, inside and out.

It's become our favourite café since we discovered it last week

Looks superb, this is the cafe / tea rooms you recommended for when I'm next in Buxton? Where's the "cake shot"?

Haha. You'll have to hang onto your appetite until my next visit, sorry.

Haha I'll hold you to that, I usually insta my nice food, simply as it helps out the business getting their food shared. Your Pavilion does look decent, but I guess a Spa town is going to attract a more affluent visitor.

As well as impoverished OAPs like me

These are interesting images, thank you for sharing them.

That really is a beautiful building,   definitely worth restoring.

Absolutely. Not sure how long it's going to take, though.

haha no! Photo's or it never happened

Also, it's been years and years since I've heard the term "Ice cream parlour" ...Parlour was a front room I thought, or a dodgy massage establishment made famous by footballer Wayne Rooney??

When I was a kid our house had a parlour - and there was nothing dodgy about us!

Well it's on my list now.  

What a marvelous-looking café, no wonder you like to visit there. Great pics!

I can believe that easily. Some of these local cafés are nice to occasionally visit.

Irrefutable evidence this time
Solid rain today so a quick bus trip to the café and back.
